How much is a person worth?
This seems to be a question that does not need to be answered in the twenty-first century, because life is priceless, and the concept has become popular.
But in the middle and late nineteenth century, life really had a price.
In the five years of Tongzhi, that is, 1866, the famous historian of literature and art, Li Aibo, who was a Hube Lang, spent 280 dollars to buy a singer and went home to be a sister-in-law. The line star is almost the same, but it is still a little bit worth; In the four years of Guangxu, it was 1878. The adult Li spent 130 two silvers to buy a seat, and the price was normal; in the 13th year of Guangxu Even in 1887, it was the Lord Li who spent 180 two silvers to buy a Wang family.
How much should I like to eat tender grass?
So it seems that today, in 1872, it only takes about one hundred and two to buy a little wife, so the little fat man made a price of ten thousand for the Chuxue family, which is indeed a bit high.
When Li Mu was talking, the cook who was still scratching her head was still looking at Li Mu with the eyes full of Greek wings, and when the fat man finished talking, the cook collapsed to the ground.
Whoever looks at it, Li Mu doesn't look like someone who can afford to spend 12,000 silver—
Even if it is 12,000 silver, in ordinary people want to come, Li Mu probably will not be used to buy a servant, this price is too expensive.
It's true that after the little fat man made the price, the children in the restaurant were almost dumbfounded. The origins of the future "pillars of the imperial court" of the Qing empire are not very good. Before boarding the ship, it is estimated that they have not seen what the silver mule looks like, and they have no concept of "12,000 silver".
But everyone knows that there is no doubt that 12,000 silver is a lot of money.
Hearing this figure, Lao Zheng's eyes suddenly lighted, and the look towards the fat man was full of approval. It is estimated that Lao Zheng could not think of it, the fat man would use this method to find his place.
The old Yan's family now has despair written on their faces. Even Yan Hu, who had been struggling just now, closed his eyes in pain. As for the chef who was still begging, she started to cry.
This number is too desperate for the old Yantou family.
Li Mu did not agree with the price, but the reason for not agreeing was not because he did not want to pay, but because the money was insufficient.
Li Mu didn't hesitate, anyway, the money in his pocket was easy, so Li Mu took out all the dollars in his pocket and threw them directly in front of the fat man: "Say it first, not enough for $ 8,000, buddy. I spent a little more in two days. There are only seven thousand points here. Love or not. "
Li Mu gave Mike $ 150 before and after, plus $ 24 from the old man, and there should still be $ 7,874. Li Mu did not hide, took out his own $ 24, and then took the remaining $ 7,850. All to the fat man.
"Is this why we haven't disembarked, there isn't even a place to spend money, where did you spend the money?" The little fat man was curious.
Li Mu could not help but roll his eyes. Is it possible that the clothes on Tema's body and these pistol bullets were all changed by tricks?
However, the fat man didn't mean to investigate. The old Zheng behind the fat man even let go of the early snow, took the money on the table cheerfully, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
This money-saving hand is also fast, faster than Li Mu's "pull-out" practiced for several days!
"Okay-Chu Xue is yours, but your kid has got a big deal. Chu Xue, the little girl, is still very good for warming up the bed."-The little fat man laughed a little bit evil, letting Li Mu's heart suddenly hesitate.
This-Chu Xue is not yet an adult, and her small bones have not grown, so she should not be scourged by a fat man.-
In a blink of an eye, Li Mu overthrew the idea, how big is the fat man, and it is estimated that the hair is not growing, even if you want to do evil, it is estimated that you are powerless.
Warm bed——
The word in the middle and late nineteenth century really does not mean the ambiguous relationship between men and women, or the literal meaning.
Warm bed is one of the maid's duties. In cold winter, the maid should warm the quilt for the host before the host goes to bed, so that the host can fall asleep. As for whether there will be something loved, it depends on the appearance of the **** the bed. And the master's ability, at this age of little fat man, it is estimated that there is no capital for evil.
However, since Chu Xue is already Li Mu's person, Li Mu will not let the fat man make a fuss, so Li Muyi is right: "Stop—Since the buddies spend money, then Chu Xue is a buddy's person. Pay attention to this when you speak— "
It seemed that Li Mu and the fat man had completed the deal between them, and they suddenly stunned everyone in the restaurant.
Except for the Chuxue family, everyone's eyes on Li Mu are similar to those of fools, including even Mike. They really did not expect that Li Mu actually had so much money, and he actually gave up so much money to buy the Chuxue family. Man, this is not a sum of money, it is just like water in the Pacific Ocean--
As for the eyes of the Chuxue family to see Li Mu, it is almost like seeing Tai Shang Laojun descending into the world. The gratitude in his eyes almost makes Li Mu feel like sitting on a needle.
Lao Zhenggang let go of Chu Xue, and the weeping kitchen lady suddenly rushed up, hugged Chu Xue firmly in her arms, and touched with surprise his hands the hair that Chu Xue had been scrambled by Lao Zheng. cry.
But no one can hear the lost joy in the cry, which is completely different from the tragic despair just now.
Lao Yan's head froze. He looked at Lao Zheng and the fat man with a complex look, and then stomped his head again. Then he got around the table and came to Li Mu beside him. He knelt upright and respectfully. .
This is what it means to confess the Lord.
The atmosphere seemed dignified and solemn, but Li Mu felt very awkward in his heart. How he saw the actions of Lao Yantou was similar to worshiping his ancestors.
Li Mu from the 21st century, although he does not want to be too different in this era, but he is also unwilling to let others kneel over and kneel. It is okay for the Qing people to be on the boat. If you get on the boat, Americans will see this. This kind of etiquette, the Americans will certainly not accept the evil of Li Fei, the feudal dynasty.
Not only Lao Yan's head, just behind Lao Yan's head, the chef who was still crying just now is holding the head with Chu Xue, Yan Hu and Yan Shun are no longer entangled, and Yan Hu, who was also angry at the championship just now, is also honest Really come over gimmick.
Not to mention, looking at the five big and three coarse men kneeling in front of themselves, Li Mu really has a different kind of emotion in his heart.
In fact, no matter in the 21st century or the 19th century, destiny can never be in the hands of others. To control their own destiny and to determine the destiny of others, they must first strengthen themselves.
At this moment, Li Mu urgently needs to become stronger as quickly as possible, unprecedentedly urgent.
